11 Promises To My Roommate
Cheyenne Graden Facebook

I feel like it was just a couple days ago that we were walking into our first day of freshman year of high school. In a few short days, we'll be moving into our college dorm together.

A lot has happened these past four years, but I cannot wait to start these next four years with you! Here are a few things I promise to you:

1. I promise to always be there for you.

Whether it is two in the morning before a big test or eight in the morning when you are struggling to wake up for class, I will be there.


2. I promise to only play my country music when you are not in the room.

I know you hate it, but I will never stop loving it! I will try my best not to expose you to it.


3. I promise to help you make 500 flash cards for all of your nursing tests.

I know sometimes your major will get difficult, but I will always help you study.

4. I promise to never let you skip a class.

College is expensive. We don't pay thousands of dollars a year to fail a class. You can count on me to drag you all the way to your 8 a.m. class.


5. I promise not to get mad at you for wanting to go home a lot.

I know you will miss your family and being home so know that it is okay to do that as much as you need. Just remember I will always be there when you get back.


6. I promise to go to all the football games with you.

Probably the best part of fall!!


7. I promise not to be loud and obnoxious when you are trying to sleep or study.

The truth is I will probably be sleeping 100% of the time, but I will be respectful if I am not sleeping.


8. I promise not to be a slob... all of the time.

I will always try to clean things up, but I am not gonna lie I will get busy and forget to make my bed or take out the trash every once in awhile.


9. I promise to always binge watch Netflix with you.

Does this even need an explanation? Netflix is always the answer.


10. I promise to make our dorm feel like home.

After the countless hour spent on Pinterest and online shopping, our dorm will feel like we never even left home.

11. I promise to always be your friend.

Even if we get mad at each other from time to time, you can always count on me to be there and be your friend. Wesley will be full of unfamiliar faces, but I will never let you feel alone. We have spent so much time talking about college and all of the things we might experience. I know we are ready and I know we can do this together. So I promise you all of these things, but most importantly, I promise everything will be okay. Love you forever!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
